The sound of gunfire echoed in the wild, drifting into the distance with the wind in the silent night, Xiao Letian, who was patrolling the battlefield, suddenly tightened his heart, and his back was soaked with sweat all of a sudden.

"Send someone to check it out! Don't blow up the camp ......"

Since ancient times, commanders are afraid of civil strife if they are not afraid of a strong enemy, and bombing a battalion is the most terrible disaster. Especially after a day of bloody battles, people's emotions suddenly relax from the high tension, and people's spirits are on the verge of perversion.

A day's blood and fire are full of death, all the ears are full of wailing, life and death are gambling on life, plus hunger and thirst for a day people are extremely anxious, at this time, once there is an accident, it will cause a chain reaction.

"Gunshots, there are gunshots! Is Xiao Lotian going to slaughter the city? He wants to kill all our Tokugawa army, run away......"

"It's gunfire coming from the north of our coalition forces...... It's bad, Xiao Lotian has betrayed us, they have joined forces with the Tokugawa family, they want to outflank us at night, they want to slaughter the camp......"

The Tokugawa army and the Southwest Coalition army were all in disarray, people scattered around the fire, the bonfire could only illuminate a small area in the dark night, and the darkness around them surrounded them as if they were solid, and the soldiers looked at the darkness around them in horror, as if a few evil spirits could jump out of it at any moment.

The uneasiness soon leads to chaos, and it may just be that someone fleeing accidentally steps on your foot, but the terrifying atmosphere of the scene will make you think that you are under attack by the enemy, and you will subconsciously draw your knife and slash away.

When the screams of blood and death began to spread, the camp roar, commonly known as the bombing of the camp, took place.

At this moment, all the people became wild beasts, their spears unconsciously pierced out in the darkness, the samurai were wielding their swords desperately like madmen, and everyone's eyes were red and they had no idea who they were fighting against.

"Dispel! Dispel the two armies...... As long as the Tokugawa family does not come into contact with the Southwest Coalition Army, as long as they can't see the armor and military flag of the hostile side, the bombing camp can be controlled!"

Under the command of Xiao Letian, the new army began to shrink its position, not blindly entering the darkness and calming the chaos, but guarding the separation belt between the two armies, under the protection of barbed wire, calmly observing the two groups of madmen killing each other.

It can't be said that Xiao Letian is cruel, but now his response is the most correct, and people who lived under the glory of industrial civilization in their previous lives cannot understand the impact of the night on the ancients. If you've ever been a traveler and actually camped in uninhabited mountains and dense forests, you'll know what real darkness is.

You can't see your fingers, and it's hard to discern the direction, the slightest hint of wind and grass in the grass and bushes makes you think that there are poisonous snakes and beasts, and if you are not careful, you will step on the air, and there are no smooth playgrounds and roads in the wilderness.

And the ancient people are even more sad, due to severe malnutrition, so many soldiers have night blindness, even if there is a little starlight and moonlight at night, they can't see anything clearly, so throughout the ages, generals have tried to avoid night battles.

Xiao Letian stared at the chaotic shouts of killing around him, and Songping's hands were sweaty, "Prime Minister......! Otherwise, the whole camp will die!"

Xiao Letian raised his hand and signaled him to shut up, "You have also led soldiers, you know better than me what the current situation is, I only have 3,000 marines in my hands, how can I control this battlefield? Now what they need is the formation, they need to restore the formation immediately, and then there will be fire!"

"Lord Matsudaira, please take your guards back to your camp immediately, I don't ask you to fight quickly, you just need to gather the rout, don't expect all the soldiers to calm down all at once, I just ask you to calm down the people around you, expand like a snowball, as long as you can get a thousand people back to the formation, then the bombing of the camp will not be terrible......"

"Master Long, immediately let Osaka Castle send a high-ranking general, and bring the defenders in the city into the battlefield as a team of 100 people, and show me those crazy people one by one......

Matsudaira Rongbao and Long Ye quickly left the isolation zone with the order, and after a while, Matsudaira Rongbao rushed to a fire with a dozen personal guards, and finally woke up more than a dozen red-eyed soldiers with punches and kicks.

"Yaga, see who I am! I'm Matsudaira Yoho, I now order you to calm down, let's be behind me, and join me to pacify the camp ......"

The soldiers who were beaten finally woke up, although they didn't know Matsudaira-sama, but they could distinguish the general's armor clearly, and at that moment, it was as if the child had found the backbone, and tears fell.

Pacifying one fire and then moving on to the next, and beware of the attack of the madman in the dark on the way, it snowballed little by little, and soon Matsudaira Yoho had more than 500 calm soldiers under his command.

Five hundred people shouted in unison, and soon the four fields were shaken: "Stop, all stop, everyone lay down their weapons! No one will kill you, everything is fine here...... Damn, you dare to swing a knife and wake him up for me!"

When Matsudaira Rongho controlled the situation little by little, Osaka Castle's Okochi Masashi, Sakai Tadasumi, and Tachibana Tane Kyo...... The big guys also took the soldiers out of the city one after another, like pieces of sticky cake rolling into a pile of beans, and soon a large number of those chaotic soldiers were glued away.

The Tokugawa New Army gradually calmed down, and the Southwestern Coalition Army on the other side of the separation zone was relatively small in number, plus Saigo Takamori and Yama Prefecture Aritomo were among them, so the restoration of order was not slow, and the roar of the bombing camp just two and a half hours later gradually subsided.

Xiao Letian said to his generals, "You remember, the army lives by the formation, and if you want to have combat effectiveness and military discipline, you must ensure that the structure of the army is not chaotic......"

"To put it bluntly, the formation is very simple, that is, let your soldiers find the squad leader as soon as possible, and the squad leader can find the platoon commander as soon as possible and ...... by analogy."

"Human beings are very conformist, and the power of habit is very strong, a soldier can only break out the most powerful combat effectiveness with the cooperation of his familiar comrades-in-arms and the leadership of familiar commanders, and the establishment is to ensure that every soldier can find everything he is familiar with in the chaotic battlefield and emergencies!"

"Hey...... I am also to blame for this matter, I hid a little selfishness before, and I didn't let them re-establish in time after the bloody battle, and I was also afraid that after their establishment was restored, it would not be conducive to our control, but I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect to bomb the camp?"

"Damn, check it out! I want to know who drove it...... I've confiscated all their bullets, who hid them!"

Yes, the new army had already collected all the gunpowder and bullets of the two armies before the dinner in the evening, and this is what they were afraid of, but what they were afraid of came.

The best way to pacify the camp is to let the soldiers see the officers as soon as possible, and it is best to see the officers they are familiar with and convinced, so that the power of habit can overcome fear, and let the calmness of the group suppress madness, and it is precisely because of Xiao Letian's proper response that the bombing of the camp was quelled in just over two hours.

At this time, it was already past three o'clock in the morning, and when order was restored, the marines and the original defenders of Osaka Castle began to provide both sides with a large amount of firewood and oil, and piles of larger and brighter bonfires were lit, and the warmth and security brought by the firelight made the soldiers' mood more stable.

"I'll tell you one word, demolish! There are houses in Osaka castle town, but aren't all Japanese houses made of wooden planks? I will tear them all down and send them to the fire, and I must ensure that the battlefield is bright all night!"

Osaka's castle town was in a disaster, with houses being pushed one by one, planks and logs being sent to the battlefield, and piles of bonfires burning into the sky, which finally offset the fear brought by the dark shadows.

Taking advantage of the fire, the Southwest Coalition and the Tokugawa New Army began to reorganize the army's command structure, and the samurai were assigned to various squads, and one night was enough time for them to get acquainted with each other.

Just when Xiao Letian was busy with his feet not touching the ground, Long Ye suddenly carried a thin monkey-like Japanese ashigaru, and threw it in front of the prime minister, "Prime Minister, this guy knows who fired the gun, and that burst of gunfire was fired by Lord Ryoma Sakamoto...... Ryoma-sama has just been ambushed, and his life and death are unknown!"

"Huh?" Xiao Lotian never expected to hear such shocking news, "Has anyone found it?"

"General Luo Huo has already led three companies to chase the north in person, General Sima Yun is gathering troops, and ten minutes later, four more companies are fanning to sweep the north...... I'm sure I'll find Ryoma-sama!"

Xiao Letian clenched his fists, biting his lips with his teeth, and spun in place like a trapped beast. In the evening, he knew that Takasugi Jinsaku had been killed in battle, and now that Ryoma-kun had also been attacked, how could the few potential seeds he was optimistic about be all killed by the Japanese themselves?

How difficult it is for this small and violent country to produce a few smart strategists who know how to advance and retreat, and Xiao Letian's big plan is inseparable from these people.

Especially Sakamoto Ryoma, that is the first prime minister of Japan that Xiao Lotian is about to support, this is the first pro-China politician he has cultivated in Japan.

What's more, Sakamoto Ryoma and Xiao Letian want to have a good personal relationship, it is a feeling that blood is thicker than water, and Ryoma-kun's veins can flow with Xiao Letian's blood.

"Ryoma-kun, is this year really destined to be the threshold in your life? In the last parallel world, you died in the winter of this year, and now that I, Xiao Lotian, am here, can't I change your fate?"

"Not only can't it be changed, but you will die early in the summer, how powerful is the power of this history! Damn it......"

At this moment, Noheita of the sword drawing team brought Suzuki Tai and others to Xiao Letian with several corpses, "Prime Minister, we have already investigated the ambush battlefield...... The one who attacked Ryoma-sama was actually Matsudaira Rongho's White Tiger Youth League!"

"What......" Xiao Lotian was shocked.

Note: Today's first update will be sent, and I will add one more update in order to thank Brother Jack for his full booking and reward.

Yesterday, Xinjing said that he was going to finish the first book of the Great Qing Hidden Dragon, and he would not write it after preparing for the Japanese Raiders, which caused dissatisfaction among many book friends.

There are those who persuade me in the group, there are also those who give me ideas in private chats, and there are also Jack brothers who support me with practical actions and rewards...... What surprised me even more was that no one was abusive, everyone's quality made Xinjing admire, and everyone's friendship moved Xinjing.

Later, I had dinner with friends in the evening, and they also advised me to be calm and calm, it was a long story of more than 2.3 million words, what a pity it would be if I was a eunuch, there are very few writers in the online literature circle who can write history to such a long time.

Yes, I also feel a pity that my heart is pure, I have insomnia all night and finally think about it, or let me stay up again, although it is very difficult.

I can now reveal that the subscription amount of this book on the main site in September was less than 300 yuan, and the subscription amount as of yesterday and October was less than 100 yuan.

Brothers and sisters, even if one of us gives a subscription for a dollar, it shouldn't be this achievement, right? Of course, the website has to take half of this money.

Is "The Hidden Dragon of the Qing Dynasty" good? Is it good? Is it good? Is it good? Ask three important things, if it's good, why don't you give a 9-cent subscription to a chapter? I'm really hard to understand.

Well, it's useless to say that, and in China's environment where piracy is rampant, the author can only sigh.

Everyone said that they had no money, that they were student parties, and that they were moonshine clansmen...... But a chapter of nine-penny consumption......

Okay, let's not talk about those who are unhappy, Xinjing continues to work hard to write, and I hope you will continue to support me, and from today onwards, you can make a commitment to update Xinjing.

If the subscription amount exceeds 30 yuan on the same day, a new chapter will definitely be added the next day, and the subscription amount of each day can be checked in the system of the website, which cannot be wrong.

30 yuan I add one more, 60 yuan plus two more, 90 yuan I add three more...... How fast and good do you want to see, and you also hope that the results of sesame blossoming will be higher and higher, since this is the case, then the data will speak!

I'm going to see if you can exhaust me to death!"

The above data is based on the subscription of the computer main station, if you don't know where the computer main station is, you can join the group to ask book friends. 116253076 now, I'm going to start coding the second chapter of today, which is for Brother Jack.
